imitii iiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit iiiiiiiiiitHiiiiiiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiin • Blore Gave Up Million-a-day Job
over a job that paid him a million a day was the best financial move Eric Blore, the screen comedian, ever made. “I made a million a day,” he said, “but it was in German marks, shortly after the World War ended, and my salary wouldn’t buy much more than a loaf of bread.”
The actor, stranded in Leipzig with a repertory company, abruptly quit, went to America and make his mark on both stage and screen. His latest film is “The Lone Wolf Strike,” a fast, exciting, melodrama of intrigue revolving round a fabulous necklace. The Lone Wolf (Warren Williams) is persuaded to emerge from retirement when the necklace is stolen, Blore, as the valet to William who has thoroughly tired of his master’s devotion to a household of goldfish, welcomes a return to the sleuthing trail and figures prominently in the startling climax.
WALT DISNEY’S latest full-length ’’ cartoon, “Pinocchio,” is making more money in America than the recordrbreaking "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.”
